Im going to buy one of the following and i just cant decide which:
Sennheiser HD-280 Traditional Closed Dynamic Collapsible Headphones: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000065BPB/102-4803258-2277707?v=glance&me=ATVPDKIKX0DER&st=electronics
Some day when my house sells ill be moving into a smaller house in Illinois where my computer will be next to the main tv and blasting my speakers there just isnt an option. Right now i have logitech z-540's so these will be a big step up.
Star Wars Galaxies:
This is going to be more expensive both initially and over time but my friends are raving about how good it is.
Whoever gets the most votes wins ill buy it.

Get the headphones. Sennheiser are 1 of the best (if not the best) you can get.

The game will pass... true clean sound lasts forever (well, almost).
Sennheiser headphones, they last longer then the game
are you sure you want closed headphones? get open or semi-closed ones, closed headhpones have more (too much) bass and your ears get pretty warm as there's no ventilation possible

I was gonna vote for Galaxies but I see you already bought it.
I know this is off topic but... I need 1GB RAM in my system to get SWG smooth. Does that sound right? 512MB is choppy as hell with my A64 @ 2.6ghz and a 9800XT at 450/400.

well im sorry i didnt see this thread earlier but swg sucks.... maybe if they threw in a z plane and maybe some secret stuff it'd be cool, but there are no spells or anything. Its more of a job oriented game than action. the amusement parks are fun tho.

i ordered the phones last week from some place for like $70 shipped in Silver but theyre backordered so i have to wait for the first week of Feb. I hope ill put as much use out of them as i have for galaxies (over 80 hours since december 28th)

I heard that Star Wars Galaxies wasn't very good, and you have to pay to play..

I got the Sennheiser HD-280's for Christmas. They are awesome. Nice clean sound and strong but not too strong bass. I like that every component on them is user replaceable.
